What are the differences between the Sako TRG 41 and TRG 42, other than that all the 41s had the 1 in 12 twist rate versus the 42, the more recent ones of which have the 1 in 10 twist rate? What other differences?

Are these differences enough to make a TRG 42 worth it to get new if a used TRG 41 is available for substantially less money? Can you elaborate a bit on each change and its impact?
